30 Years of Stent Innovation

Meko

Visit us at COMPAMED in Hall 8a at Booth 8aJ07

Sarstedt, September 1, 2025

At this year's COMPAMED in Düsseldorf, MeKo® will once again showcase its latest developments in high-precision laser processing and medical device innovation. As one of the leading international trade fairs for the medical technology supply sector, COMPAMED is the ideal platform for MeKo to share its expertise and connect with medical device manufacturers from around the world.

This year marks a special milestone: MeKo® celebrates 30 years since its first stent project in 1995. Since then, the company has developed into a trusted partner for OEMs and start-ups worldwide. With more than three decades of experience, MeKo® continues to lead the way in precision manufacturing and innovation.

MeKo® has further expanded its foundry for magnesium-based materials like Resoloy®. The facility enables precise adjustments to alloy composition and microstructure, supporting tailored development of bioresorbable implants and scaffolds. The in-house foundry enhances flexibility and innovation speed for research and customer projects.

One highlight at COMPAMED will be MeKo’s advanced polymer coatings for implants such as stents and heart valve frames. These coatings offer long-term drug elution, enhanced durability and biocompatibility and can be applied to both metallic and bioresorbable materials. Of particular interest is the compatibility with MeKo’s proprietary magnesium alloy Resoloy®.

With the newly established MeKo® MedLab, a spin-off from MeKo®, the company now offers in-house testing and validation for materials, components and assembled products. From burst pressure tests to tensile strength and corrosion analysis, MeKo® MedLab ensures that every product meets the highest quality standards and is ready for market approval.

We invite all COMPAMED visitors to meet our experts at Booth 8aJ07 in Hall 8a. Experience our latest innovations and explore how MeKo® can support your next-generation medical devices from concept to certification.
